une nuit noire (the dark as rich as the light)

big and black as night

 

things don't turn out the way y'want

first chances, second chances

happenstances

don't matter

 

y'end up on the street

in the dark

after

all

 

that's just the way it comes

and goes

 

ain't no thing

ain't no pity

just lucky breaks

or broken luck

 

brick walls are good

for holdin things up

or holdin things back

 

it's up to you

it's down on me

 

is that all y'got?
